Want to hunt for a bad haircut, here is the place. I'm not a barber, but I think I would do a better job. My son and I made appointments to get a haircut. Ron botched my son's haircut. He left his hair all uneven. He left me looking like a mushroom. I kept telling him to fix it but he kept saying: "I don't want to ruin a perfect haircut." What the heck! He also did a horrible job on the line. It seems like he just gives up and thinks his customers are content. We are not! I had to go to another barber to fix my hair. This barber told me that I'm not the first one to seek him to fix Ron's haircuts. I'm lucky he was able to fix it. Won't be visiting Ron again and please don't waste your money on this guy. read more

NOT FOR LONG HAIR Not me but my BF went in today 6/27/2020 to get his long hair trimmed 2-3 inches. He's been growing his hair out for almost 5 years & his hair was past the middle of his back. My boyfriend showed him what he wanted & this man cut 5+ inches off! His hair is now at the top of his shoulders & he's sick about it! He also asked for his baby hairs around the name of his neck to be trimmed & lined up. Nothing was done to them. Now he may just have to cut it all off. Not a happy customer! read more

I have had my hair cut by Ron Ruhl for many years. It is always a pleasant experience. The prices are quite reasonable, and there are discounts for seniors and children. Ample parking is adjacent. read more

It's a bit tough to find, but it's worth the trouble. Ron is an oustanding barber--plus just an all-around nice guy. I came in today with a mop of hair--dirty & too long. Ron fixed me up promptly, and I was delighted with the service. **SPECIAL BONUS** Ron has one of those old-fashioned neck massagers. After my haircut I got a shoulder/neck massage! Excellent--I felt like a new man! I see from other reviews that Ron sometimes sings to the customers. I did not hear any singing today, so I feel a bit gyped. Next time, I expect to hear, The Barber of Seville, or no tip for you. read more

No more "Great" Clips or "Super" Cuts for me. I have found a new barber. Gave Ron a call to make sure that he was open for business during this pandemic. He was taking appointments, so I made one for the next day. It's a neat, little one chair shop, and he had Broadway show tunes playing. I received a great cut and some fun, interesting conversation. When finished with the cut, he gave me a nice shoulder massage. I left smelling like I remember my Dad smelled when he would come back from the barber shop. Wonderful guy ! read more

Great hair cut super happy from now on coming head hunters every time I need to cut my hair

Looking for a new place and happened on this spot. The owner Ron was very friendly and gave me a great haircut. Price is very competitive to other places in CV. read more

As soon as I talk to him on the phone to make an appointment I felt very at home and comfortable. What a nice man. Told stories about his youth and others that were very interesting. Plus, he did a great job cutting my hair and the prices was reasonable. read more

Ron is a magician. He is extremely experienced and old school. I was craving for a good haircut from ages. I am glad i found him. Please try him, i insist! read more

Solid old school barber shop nothing fancy but Ron gives me a nice clean cut every time plus a quick shoulder massage with a device that shakes me and releives tension makes me feel refreshed. 40's and 50's soundtrack on the jukebox and ancient cash register are nice touches reminds me of the barber shop I used to go to as a kid with my Grandpa except Ron at Headhunter's gives me a much better haircut !!! read more

My husband just came back and he looks awful! He literally needed his head shaved and his beard trimmed. He has half an inch left on his head and his beard is patchy... and that's me being kind! I don't know how anyone could have messed this up but congratulations, the barber here did. Thankfully, my husband is able to fix it himself as he has been doing that all of shelter in place. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere. read more

Walked in... No wait. Ron was all smiles and very courteous. I got a great cut for a good price. If I lived closer, I would go back regularly. read more

After my Barber of 20 years retired I needed to find someone who can not only give the perfect cut, but who would also be personable. No need to look any further! Ron provided a haircut identical to the picture I showed him and we engaged in an outstanding conversation. He is a good man who provides professional service and I highly recommend him! read more

Ron will do you right. Old school in the best possible way. Quite the conversationalist but with a straight razor, neck massage abs a quality cut you can't go wrong. Slightly tough to find but that's part of the charm. Like walking back in time. read more

A great place ! Took great care of my 95 year old father. Had great patience and treated him with dignity

Great sharp haircuts!! Been coming to Ron for years and he goes out of his way to get you in when you need a quick appointment.

Ron does a great job! I ditto everything the last reviewer, Chris C said! He's a little hidden off the road but not too hard to find. What a great guy... I first came to Ron's shop about 30 years ago. I love this guy and he gives me a good cut. read more
